Description
図1〜図4を用いて、本発明の第1実施形態の内視鏡10について説明する。
すなわち、内視鏡10は、滅菌処理を行っても軟性部11Cの内部の湿度が上昇にしくいため、撮像光学系21のレンズ23が曇るおそれがない。
比較例1である内視鏡10A(不図示)は、内視鏡10と略同じ構成であるが、外皮が、バリア層を含まず、50μm厚のウレタン樹脂チューブだけ構成されている。撮像ユニットの内部空間は樹脂で封止した。内視鏡10Aは、高負荷試験(高温高湿試験)においてレンズの曇りが観察された。
比較例2である内視鏡10B(不図示)は、外皮が最外層の樹脂層の内側に単層の金属バリア層を有する。具体的には、挿入部をポリウレタンからなる膜厚3μmのチューブ(下地樹脂層)で被覆し、下地樹脂層の表面に膜厚1μmの金属アルミニウム層(バリア膜)を成膜し、金属アルミニウム層を50μm厚のウレタン層(樹脂層)で覆った。
比較例3である内視鏡10C(不図示)は、外皮が最外層の樹脂層の内側に金属酸化物からなる単層のバリア層を有する。具体的には、膜厚3μmのウレタンチューブの上に膜厚500nmの酸化アルミニウム層を成膜し、酸化アルミニウム層の上に最外層の樹脂層を配設した。内視鏡10Cも、800回の低温プラズマ滅菌処理後には、高温高湿試験により、レンズの曇りが発生することがあった。
変形例1の内視鏡10Cは、外皮50が、最外層の樹脂層51と、樹脂層51の内側に配設されたバリア膜52と、厚さ2μmの下地樹脂層55と、を含む。バリア膜52は、スズ酸化物からなる厚さ100nmの第1のバリア層53と金属スズからなる厚さ4μmの第2のバリア層54とが積層されている。
なお、以上の説明では、第1のバリア層53と第2のバリア層54とからなる2層構成の積層バリア膜52を有する内視鏡10、10C、10Dについて説明した。しかし、図5に示す第2実施形態の内視鏡10E(不図示)のように、外皮50Dの積層バリア膜52Dは、金属酸化物からなる複数の第1のバリア層53A、53Bと金属からなる複数の第2のバリア層54A、54Bとが積層されていてもよい。
